Oriental Coin - Need ID

[Pocket Change]

Coin is about 24mm, looks possibly brass & weighs 3.4 grams. Any help appreciated.

Pretty certain this is a Chinese 1 cash coin from the Jin Dynasty: 1115-1234. If anyone has David Hartill's reference work they could verify it.

I was able to look this up in David Hartill's reference work, Cast Chinese Coins.

Jin Dynasty (1115-1234)
King Hai Liang, also called Emperor Wan Yan Liang (1149-61). Referenced as H18.40.

Hartill uses a rarity scale of 0 (extremely rare) to 16 (Very Common). This is 14 with an approximate value of 5 dollars.
